With Russia’s front collapsing, Putin is weaponising the Dnipro River by using it to slice Ukraine in two (Ukraine Battlefield update, Day 1,722)

Russia aims to divide Ukraine along the Dnipro River, targeting bridges to achieve strategic military objectives. Analysts suggest Ukraine must respond effectively to these attacks. The left and right banks of the river serve as a focal point for Russian propaganda. Speculations about the future of the conflict include scenarios where Putin dies in 2027 and Estonia faces invasion shortly after. Key cities like Sloviansk and Kramatorsk are advised for evacuation. The Dnipro River, a vital historical and industrial artery, plays a crucial role in the ongoing conflict, symbolizing both a geographical and cultural divide.
